Backsplash suggestions to coordinate with Cambria Praa Sands, please!
Good afternoon! We have finalized cabinets (all "midnight blue"), range hood, hardware (nearly there, definitely doing aged brass) and appliances. We LOVE Cambria's Praa Sands and want to do it on all countertop surfaces. We are struggling with what sort of backsplash we might do with it it-- we want to do something simple, but don't want to do white because it would be white-on-white with the hood. Any suggestions?? I've seen some Praa Sands clashing and want to avoid that! Walls in the rest of the kitchen will be white, for context, and we haven't yet decided pendants but will do two medium sized ones. Thanks for your input!

hace 4 añosIt looks like white tile wouldn't necessarily be right next to the hood - since there is the wood trim along the bottom. Since you'll have strong cabinet color + a busy (& beautiful) counter top, I would lean heavily towards a very light, white-ish backsplash.
Is it possible for you to (a) take a sample of the counter to various tile shops to start comparing? and (b) wait until everything is installed so you can evaluate tile color in your actual kitchen?L White
Autor originalhace 4 añosOP here: we'd like to continue the backsplash up the wall, so that it will go behind the hood to the ceiling. Thank you for your ideas!

hace 4 añosI would suggest pulling out one of the lesser seen colors in the Cambria as long as it doesn't clash with other colors in the cabinetry or room. A simple glass subway tile in Taupe would be classic and allow you to play around with the blues in accessories.

hace 4 añosDaltile Modern Dimensions has several colors & sizes that match your top that would work well.

hace 4 añosI think I’d stick with white...just make sure it’s the same white as in the counters. Pretty counters!!! I love all the colors. Make sure to post pics when done.

hace 4 añosI vote white, I don’t think it will be a problem with the hood at all.. Great choices you’ve made. It’s going to be beautiful.

hace 4 añosI think you should go with white backsplash and, if possible, with the same white you have in the countertop. Have you considered maybe choosing another quartz option from Cambria for this purpose? Not sure about their options, but maybe they have something that would match the countertop and it would be so easy to clean that backsplash (no grouts to clean!). Another idea is to take a sample of your countertop to your local tile shops and compare/find the tile that goes best with it. God luck!

hace 4 añosA white or taupe backsplash might work best with the countertops, cabinet color, and hood color.

hace 4 añosCan you just make your slab into a backsplash too instead of adding another material? If you are committed to all of those other elements it would be a show stopping solution if budget allowed. White on white could blend the hood in but on my screen the hood white doesn’t match the counter white so that would be problematic for a tile. I think beige would look one element too many. Maybe embrace the grey veining instead because it would go with the navy base....but people say grey trend is out (not that I think anything should be there due to trend!).

Autor originalhace 4 añosOP back! The tile that Mandeville Canyon Designs posted is unquestionably beautiful and would pull the taupe out of the praa sands so well, but I am having difficulty getting over the fact that there would be a new color and straight grout lines above my swirly praa sands counters. I've asked for a quote on praa sands everything (counters and backsplash up to ceiling behind hood), which MAY be in the budget. If it is in the budget, it might be too much praa sands... still thinking on that. Will report back!

hace 4 añosThe countertop material as back splash would be beautiful (but double check that the white of your hood won't clash with the white of the quartz- since the hood would be up against it). The taupe tiles with a very thin grout would work (or maybe larger tiles).

hace 4 añosÚltima modificación: hace 4 añosabsolutely wait until everything is installed, but you're not relegated to using white or taupe.
Since your cabs a a beautiful midnight blue, I'd wait until it's done so you can judge how the lighting will affect the backsplash. You decide to do an iridescent type of glass just so you can reflect some light.
have you thought about some blue tones? either very dark, or a light blue gray.
I've attached some diff colors next to your countertop selection
The 4 small glass squares is only for color (they come in subway tile shapes). It's Casa California and they have many diff tones in their glass tile. that one is more of a taupe tone.
here's your countertop (with white cabs) w/white subways.ILoveRed

Autor originalhace 3 añosSure thing! We did not end up going with taupe, hah. Cambria's Praa Sands has a really gorgeous pale seaglass green color running through it. We chose glass times of the same color, with a gray-taupe grout ("delorean," ha), for a backsplash. Here is a link to the tiles we used: https://tilebar.com/loft-aspen-aura-2x8-polished-glass-tiles.html. We love the way it turned out! The tiles really bring out the seaglass green in the Cambria.
